- It was very important, every point is vital for us and strong to come back from a 0-2 deficit and nice to be able to score from the penalty, I have had three in the post before, says André Pettersson to C More while the HV fans chanting his name.
André Pettersson found a gap at the right cross for 4-3.
Loui Eriksson had the chance to extend the penalty shootout for Frölunda but lost his puck in front of Joni Ortio.
With five minutes left, André Pettersson equalized to 3-3 for HV after a beautiful solo goal.
He twisted the puck to him and feinted away a backhand and with a backhand pull he put the puck in high with a backhand.
"Succeeded in tricking Lasse"
- I had good speed with me and managed to fool Lasse (Johansson).
It was a beautiful goal, says Pettersson.
Shortly before, Anthony Greco was close to becoming a three-goal scorer for Frölunda when he lifted the puck up the crossbar from close range to make it 4-2.
Joel Lundqvist put himself on the scoring record in his first game after announcing his retirement after the season.
- We were very emotional but decided to look ahead.
We want to win together, says Frölunda's coach Roger Rönnberg to C More.
Frölunda took the lead 2-0 after the first period after two goals by Anthony Greco.
At 1-0, Lundqvist passed the puck to Ryan Lasch, who drifted down and passed it to Greco, who was parked in front of the goal.
- It was a good pass by Lasch.
I held the puck down and steered the puck in, says Greco, who was happy to be back in Scandinavium after three weeks, national team break and five away games in a row, after the victory against Örebro on January 24.
"It's been a long time since we were here"
- It was nice to be back in front of our fans, it feels like it's been a long time since we were here, says Greco.
HV got up to 2-2 before Frölunda could make it 3-2.
After a quick conversion, Frölunda made it three against one and after a rebound, Nicklas Lasu got hold of the puck and tipped it in at the left post.
After 49 seconds of play, HV's Oliwer Kaski got a puck in the face, bloodied, and he had to go to the emergency room.
This after Frölunda's Jan Mursak raised a backhand at the rim and the puck took an unfortunate trajectory.
There was a brief pause as the blood was scraped off the ice.
